Evil Like The Gods

A Scripture Study

The Whole World Deceived

Revelation 12:9

And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the devil, and Satan, who deceives the whole world. She was cast out into the earth, and her angels were cast out with her.

What? The Gods are evil? Your bible says Satan deceives the whole world. The Savior says:

Luke 24:25

Then He said to them: O fools, and slow of heart to believe all that the Prophets have spoken!

He also says:

Mattithyah 6:33

But seek you first the Kingdom of Yahweh and His Righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.

The Savior said:

Mattithyah 5:48

Therefore, become perfect, just as your Father Who is in heaven is Perfect.

Be Perfect? How? Answer:

Mattithyah 19:17

But He said to him: Why do you question Me about Righteousness? There is only One Who is the Standard of Perfection, and He is Yahweh; so if you would enter into Life, keep the Laws of Yahweh.

Why keep Yahweh’s Laws of Righteousness? Answer:

Psalm 19:7

The Laws of Yahweh are Perfect, converting the whole person. The Testimony of Yahweh is sure, making the simple ones wise.

Psalm 119:165

Great peace have they who love Your Laws, and nothing will offend them; cause to fall because of unbelief or sin.

Be honest, do you see any peace in the world today? No! You see great tumults, destruction and oppression because they do not know to do Righteousness. Why? Because the religions–the preachers–are afraid to teach the Savior’s Words.

Yahweh’s Laws set us up for Eternal Life and a job in the Kingdom of Yahweh, The House of Yahweh. They show us the straight and narrow way to Life Eternal. Read carefully; there’s no other way.

Mattithyah 7:13-23

13 Enter in through the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and many are those who go that way.

14 Because straight is the gate, and narrow is the way which leads to Life, and few there are who find it.

15 Beware of false prophets who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.

16 You will know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes from thorns, or figs from thistles?

17 Likewise, every Righteous tree brings forth Righteous fruit; but a tree of evil brings forth fruit of iniquity.

18 A Righteous tree cannot bring forth fruit of iniquity, nor can a tree of evil bring forth fruits of Righteousness.

19 Every tree which does not bring forth Righteous fruit is cut down, and cast into the fire.

20 Therefore, by their fruits you will know them.

21 Not everyone who says to Me; Teacher! Teacher! will enter into the Kingdom of Yahweh, but only he who does the will of My Father Who is in heaven.

22 Many will say to Me in that day; Teacher! Teacher! Have we not prophesied in Your Name, and cast out demons in Your Name, and in Your Name performed many wonderful works?

23 But then I will declare to them; I never knew you. Get away from Me, you who practice iniquity.

Please read verse 23 again. Those are the Savior’s Words, and He is in complete unity with Yahweh. You must be in unity with the One Sent.

Revelation 22:12-16

12 And behold, I come quickly, and My Reward is with Me, to give every man according as his work will be.

13 I am the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End.

14 Blessed are those who keep His Laws, that they may have right to the Tree of Life, and may enter in through the gates into the City.

15 For outside are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and worshipers of Gods (elohim) and everyone who professes to love, yet practices breaking the Laws.

16 I, Yahshua, have sent My Messenger to testify to you these things in the congregations of The House of Yahweh. I am the Root and the Offspring of David, and the Bright and Morning Star.

I Yahchanan 3:4, 7-8, 10

4 Whoever commits sin, transgresses also the Laws; for sin is the transgression of the Laws.

7 Little children, let no man deceive you; he who practices Righteousness is Righteous, just as He is Righteous.

8 He who practices sin is of the devil, for the devil has sinned from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of Yahweh was manifested; that He might destroy the works of the devil.

10 In this the Children of Yahweh and the children of the devil are manifest. Whoever does not practice Righteousness is not of Yahweh, and he does not love his neighbor!

Did you notice in verses 8 and 10, if you don’t practice Yahweh’s Righteousness, you belong to Satan? Those Words are clearly recorded in every bible, including verse 7…let no man deceive you.

And:

Luke 24:25

Then He said to them: O fools, and slow of heart to believe all that the Prophets have spoken!

And:

Roman 6:16

Do you not know that to whom you yield yourselves as servants to obey, his servants you are whom you obey—whether of sin, which leads to death, or of obedience, which leads to Righteousness?

Yahweh alone created mankind for the sole purpose of making those who will choose Righteousness over evil, into His Image and Likeness, Family Members of the Yahweh Family. There is no other reason for mankind to exist.

Sons And Daughters

II Corinthians 6:14-18

14 Do not be unequally yoked together with unbelievers. For what fellowship has Righteousness with unrighteousness? And what fellowship does light have with darkness?

15 And what harmony can there be between Messiah and Belial; Worthlessness: Satan? Or what share does a believer have with an infidel; untrustworthy, not faithful, not true nor loyal?

16 And what agreement does The House of Yahweh have with Gods (elohim)? For we are the House of the living Father. As Yahweh has said: I will dwell in them and walk among them. I will be their Father, and they will be My people.

17 Therefore: Come out from among them and be separate, says Yahweh. Do not touch the unclean thing, and I will receive you.

18 I will be a Father to you, and you will be My sons and daughters, says Yahweh Almighty.

Compare:

I Kepha 3:6

As Sarah obeyed Abraham, calling him ruler; her head, whose daughters you are if you do Righteousness, and do not give way to fear.

Notice please, if you do Righteousness. Compare Yahshua Messiah’s Words.

Mattithyah 6:33

But seek you first the Kingdom of Yahweh and His Righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.

Read again I Yahchanan 3:7-8. If you practice sin, you belong to Satan. Satan can’t give Life.

Revelation 22:12-14

12 And behold, I come quickly, and My Reward is with Me, to give every man according as his work will be.

13 I am the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End.

14 Blessed are those who keep His Laws, that they may have right to the Tree of Life, and may enter in through the gates into the City.

The Plan of Yahweh was the same in the beginning, as we see throughout the Holy Scriptures. Nothing has changed. Yahweh commanded the man, Adam, instructing him to follow His Set, Perfect Righteousness in the beginning.

I Yahchanan 3:4-11

4 Whoever commits sin, transgresses also the Laws; for sin is the transgression of the Laws.

5 And you know that He was manifested to take away our sins, and in Him is no sin.

6 Whoever abides in Him does not sin; whoever sins, has not seen Him, neither knows Him.

7 Little children, let no man deceive you; he who practices Righteousness is Righteous, just as He is Righteous.

8 He who practices sin is of the devil, for the devil has sinned from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of Yahweh was manifested; that He might destroy the works of the devil.

9 Whoever is begotten of Yahweh does not commit sin; for His seed remains in him; and it is possible for him not to sin, because he has been begotten of Yahweh.

10 In this the Children of Yahweh and the children of the devil are manifest. Whoever does not practice Righteousness is not of Yahweh, and he does not love his neighbor!

11 For this is the Message that you heard from the beginning, that we should love one another.

In verse 11, notice it’s the same Message taught in the beginning and in the end, as we see in the last book and chapter:

Revelation 22:12-16

12 And behold, I come quickly, and My Reward is with Me, to give every man according as his work will be.

13 I am the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End.

14 Blessed are those who keep His Laws, that they may have right to the Tree of Life, and may enter in through the gates into the City.

15 For outside are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and worshipers of Gods (elohim) and everyone who professes to love, yet practices breaking the Laws.

16 I, Yahshua, have sent My Messenger to testify to you these things in the congregations of The House of Yahweh. I am the Root and the Offspring of David, and the Bright and Morning Star.

But The Gods Of This World

II Corinthians 4:3-4

3 But if our message is hidden, it is hidden to those who are lost—

4 For the Gods (elohim) of this world (led by Satan–Gen 3:5) have blinded the minds of those who do not believe (Lk 24:25), so that the Light of the Message of the Glory of the Messiah, Who is the Image of Yahweh, should not shine unto them.

Gods of this world? In the beginning? Notice this:

Genesis 3:1-5

1 Now the serpent was more subtle and crafty than any beast of the field which Yahweh had made. And she said to the woman; Has Yahweh indeed said: You shall not eat of every tree of the garden?

2 And the woman said to the serpent; We may eat the fruit of the trees of the garden;

3 But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, Yahweh has said: You shall not eat it, nor shall you touch it, or you will die.

4 And the serpent said to the woman; You will not surely die.

5 For He knows that in the day you eat of it, your eyes will be opened, and you will be as Gods (elohim), knowing Righteousness and evil.

Verse 5 shows us that evil like the Gods is the serpent’s teaching.

The Book of Revelation shows us the religion, saying she is the leader of the kings of the earth and identifies her as that great whore that sits on seven hills.

Revelation 17:3, 7, 9

3 So he carried me away in the Spirit into the midst of Godworshipers (worshipers of Elohim); and I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet colored beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns.

7 And the Messenger said to me: Why are you astonished? I will tell you the mystery of the woman, and of the beast that carries her, which has the seven heads and ten horns.

9 And here is the mind which has wisdom: The seven heads are seven hills on which the woman sits.

Seven hills? Doesn’t the Roman Catholic Church sit on seven hills?

The Basic Everyday Encyclopedia, page 451, gives us the following information concerning these seven mountains (hills).

Rome…Traditionally founded 753 BC…built on 7 hills…

Compton’s Pictured Encyclopedia, 1948, Volume 12, page 144, tells us about the city of seven hills.

…the “City of Seven Hills.” …the Capitoline, Palatine, Aventine, Quirinal, Viminal, Esquiline, and Caelian hills. …the seat of the papacy, the head of the great Roman Catholic Church.

Now, read the rest.

The Final Destruction!

Revelation 17:1-14

1 And there came one of the seven malakim who had the seven bowls, and talked with me, saying to me: Come, I will show you the sentence of the great whore that sits upon many waters,

2 With whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication; practiced idolatry: Godworship (the worship of elohim), and the inhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication.

4 And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet color, and decked with gold, and precious stones, and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication.

5 And upon her head was a name written: Mystery Babylon the great, the mother of the harlots and of the abominations of the earth.

6 And I saw the woman drunk with the blood of the Saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Yahshua. And when I saw her, I wondered with great astonishment.

7 And the Messenger said to me: Why are you astonished? I will tell you the mystery of the woman, and of the beast that carries her, which has the seven heads and ten horns.

8 The beast that you saw was, and is not, and will ascend out of the bottomless pit, and go into perdition. And those who dwell on the earth will wonder—whose names were not written in The Book of Life from the foundation of the world—when they see the beast that was, and is not, and yet is.

9 And here is the mind which has wisdom: The seven heads are seven hills on which the woman sits.

10 And there are seven kings: Five have fallen, and one is, and the other has not yet come; and when he comes, he must continue a short time.

11 And the beast that was, and is not, indeed he is the eighth, and is of the seven, and is going into perdition.

12 And the ten horns which you saw are ten kings, which as yet have not received a kingdom; but receive authority as kings one hour with the beast.

13 These have one purpose and they give their power and authority to the beast.

14 These will make war with the Lamb…

The Vatican and its pope are fulfilling this Prophecy as I write.

Revelation 17:14-18

14 …but the Lamb will overcome them; for He is the Ruler of rulers and King of kings; and those who are with Him are called, and chosen, and faithful.

15 And he said to me: The waters which you saw, where the whore sits, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and languages.

16 And the ten horns which you saw upon the beast, these will hate the whore, and will make her desolate and naked, and will eat her flesh, and burn her with fire.

17 But the Gods have put in their hearts to perform their will; and to agree, and give their kingdom to the beast, until the Words; Prophecies, of Yahweh will be fulfilled.

18 And the woman whom you saw, is that great city which reigns over the kings of the earth.

Verses 1-6 show this to be a religion that is teaching the evil-like-the-Gods doctrine, hoping to keep you from repenting and turning to Yahweh through Yahshua Messiah. It is the same doctrine taught by the serpent who deceives the whole world.

Revelation 12:9

And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the devil, and Satan, who deceives the whole world. She was cast out into the earth, and her angels were cast out with her.

Genesis 3:1, 5

1 Now the serpent was more subtle and crafty than any beast of the field which Yahweh had made. And she said to the woman; Has Yahweh indeed said: You shall not eat of every tree of the garden?

5 For He knows that in the day you eat of it, your eyes will be opened, and you will be as Gods (elohim), knowing Righteousness and evil.

You will be evil, as the Gods.

Vatican City of Rome; what does the word Vatican mean? The word “Vatican” literally means “divining serpent,” and is derived from Vatis = diviner and Can = serpent. Vatican City and St. Peter’s Basilica were built on the ancient pagan site called, in Latin, vaticanus mons or vaticanus collis, which means hill or mountain of prophecy. –Google search under “Vatican meaning”.

The Vatican (Revelation 17:18), is the leader of the religions of the earth. They are leading the world into deception, just as Satan, that old serpent, led Eve in the beginning. Eve was led into being evil like the Gods instead of Righteous like Yahweh. Remember Genesis 3:5 and being evil like the Gods. Evil is the trait of Satan seen in all 4,199 God worshipping religions. These are the war-raging religions of this present, prophesied generation.

Evil—What Does It Mean?

Notice #7; we enlarged the Name of the Creator Yahweh. So, what does Yahweh show will be brought forth by mankind following evil like the Gods?

Revelation Chapter 17 shows the great whore that (sits) judges the religions of the earth and says who lives or dies. She will, in fact, bring nuclear wars that will darken the sun.

Yahshua Messiah spoke of the darkening of the sun and this generation when the nuclear wars are lining up and getting ready to go for one hour. In that one hour, the earth will be burned and few men left. “That few” will survive, because they have Yahweh’s Protection. Notice this:

Mattithyah 24:7, 29, 33-34

7 For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and there will be famines, and pestilences; disease epidemics, and earthquakes; environmental disasters, in place after place:

29 Immediately, but after the Great Tribulation of those days will the sun be darkened, and the moon will not give her light, and the stars will fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken.

33 In the same way, when you see all these things, know that His coming and The End of the Ages are near, at the very door.

34 Truly I say to you: That generation will not pass away, until all these things are fulfilled.

Verse 29 shows the nuclear wars that will darken the sun, while verses 33-34 show that this will take place in this generation that started in 1934.

Verses 21-22 show the reason that a few will be left alive; they are the Elect who repent of sin and convert to Yahweh’s Righteousness at the protected place. Compare:

Mattithyah 24:21-22

21 For then will be Great Tribulation, such as has not come to pass since the beginning of the world to this time—no, nor ever will be.

22 And unless those days were shortened, there would no flesh be saved; but for the Elect’s sake, those days will be shortened.

Notice verse 22 is talking about the Elect. Who are the Elect?

Malakyah 4:1-4

1 For the Word of Yahweh was given to me, saying: Behold, the day comes that will burn like an oven; and all the proud, yes, and all who do wickedly, will be stubble—the day that comes will burn them up, and it will leave them neither root nor branch.

2 But for you who reverence My Name, the Light of Righteousness will arise with healing in its wings; and you will go out, leaping like calves released from the stall.

3 And the Word of Yahweh was given to me saying: the wicked will be trodden down; for they will be ashes under the soles of your feet in the day that this will be done.

4 Remember the Laws of Mosheh My servant, which I commanded through him in Horeb for all Israyl, with the Statutes and Judgments.

Notice in verse 2; it is speaking of those who reverence the Name, Yahweh, by doing what the Savior said.

Mattithyah 6:33

But seek you first the Kingdom of Yahweh and His Righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.

Deuteronomy 12:5, 7-8

5 But you are to seek the Habitation of your Father; The House of Yahweh—the place which Yahweh your Father shall choose out of all your tribes to establish His Name—and there you must go.

7 There, in front of Yahweh your Father, you and your families shall eat, and you shall rejoice in all that you have put your hand to do, because Yahweh your Father has blessed you.

8 You must not at all do as we are doing here this day—every man doing whatever is right in his own eyes—

The House Of Yahweh?

Yes, in this same generation, the Last Days, Yahweh shows that He would establish His House.

Micahyah 4:1-3

1 But in the Last Days it will come to pass that the mountain; promotion, of The House of Yahweh will be established in the chief of the nations. It will be raised above all congregations; and all peoples will eventually flow to it.

2 And many people will go and say; Come, and let us go up to the mountain; uplifting, of Yahweh, and to the House of the Father of Yaaqob, and He will teach us of His Ways, and we will walk in His Paths. Because the Laws will depart from Zion, and the Word of Yahweh from Yerusalem.

3 And He will judge between many people, and rebuke strong nations afar off; and they will beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruninghooks. Nation will not lift up sword against nation, nor will they learn war anymore.

In verse 3, did you notice that Yahweh’s Way will stop wars and the teaching of war?

This is the House that Yahshua spoke of in:

Mattithyah 16:18

And I also say to you who are Kepha: That upon this Rock, YAHWEH UNITY; I will build this house; family: The House of Yahweh, and the gates of sheol (hell) will not prevail against it.

Notice, the gates of hell will not prevail, even though the divining serpent will make war against Yahshua, Who is High Priest over The House of Yahweh.

Revelation 17:14

These will make war with the Lamb, but the Lamb will overcome them; for He is the Ruler of rulers and King of kings; and those who are with Him are called, and chosen, and faithful.

That war is in progress now, as shown in the words that the Vatican had the pope read, which you’ll see later.

Mattithyah 16:18

And I also say to you who are Kepha: That upon this Rock, YAHWEH UNITY; I will build this house; family: The House of Yahweh, and the gates of sheol (hell) will not prevail against it.

Hebrews 10:21, 16

21 And having a High Priest over The House of Yahweh:

16 This is the Covenant that I will renew with them after those days, says Yahweh: I will put My Laws into their hearts, and in their minds I will write them;

Verse 16 shows the teaching of Yahweh’s Righteousness.

Revelation 22:12-16

12 And behold, I come quickly, and My Reward is with Me, to give every man according as his work will be.

13 I am the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End.

14 Blessed are those who keep His Laws, that they may have right to the Tree of Life, and may enter in through the gates into the City.

15 For outside are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and worshipers of Gods (elohim) and everyone who professes to love, yet practices breaking the Laws.

16 I, Yahshua, have sent My Messenger to testify to you these things in the congregations of The House of Yahweh. I am the Root and the Offspring of David, and the Bright and Morning Star.

Verse 16, teaching Yahweh’s Righteousness from:

Deuteronomy 12:5

But you are to seek the Habitation of your Father; The House of Yahweh—the place which Yahweh your Father shall choose out of all your tribes to establish His Name—and there you must go.

Remember:

Mattithyah 6:33

33 But seek you first the Kingdom of Yahweh and His Righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.

Revelation 22:16-17

16 I, Yahshua, have sent My Messenger to testify to you these things in the congregations of The House of Yahweh. I am the Root and the Offspring of David, and the Bright and Morning Star.

17 And the Spirit and the brides, say: Come! And let him who hears, say: Come! And let him who is thirsty come. And whoever will, let him take the water of life freely.

Yahshua’s Messenger has been assigned to show the following, saying:

Revelation 18:1-24

1 And after these things I saw one Messenger, who was sent from Yahweh. He had great Authority; and the nations were taught Righteousness by him.

2 And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying: Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of demons, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a place where its priests reject knowledge and they teach everyone to be unclean; to hate and get away from keeping the Laws.

3 For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth have grown rich through the abundance of her delicacies.

4 And I heard another voice from heaven, saying: Come out of her, My People, so that you do not partake in her sins, and so that you do not receive of her plagues,

5 For her sins have reached unto heaven, and Yahweh has remembered her iniquities!

6 Render to her just as she rendered to you, and repay her double according to her works! In the cup which she has mixed, mix for her double!

7 In the measure that she glorified herself, and lived luxuriously, so in that measure give her torment and sorrow! For she says in her heart: I sit a queen, and am no widow, and will see no sorrow.

8 Therefore, her plagues will come in one day—death, and mourning, and famine; and she will be utterly burned with fire; for strong is Father Yahweh Who judges her.

9 And the kings of the earth, who have committed fornication and lived luxuriously with her, will wail over her, and lament for her, when they will see the smoke of her burning—

10 Standing afar off for the fear of her torment, saying: Alas! Alas! That great city Babylon, that mighty city! For in one hour your judgment has come!

11 And the merchants of the earth will weep and mourn over her; for no one buys their merchandise anymore:

12 The merchandise of gold, and silver, and precious stones, and of pearls, and fine linen, and purple, and silk, and scarlet, and all kinds of scented wood, and every kind of article of ivory, and every kind of article of most precious wood, and of brass, and iron, and marble,

13 And cinnamon, and incense, fragrant ointment, and frankincense, and wine, and oil, and fine flour, and wheat, and cattle, and sheep, and horses, and chariots, and slaves, that is, souls of men.

14 And the fruits that your soul lusted after have departed from you, and all things which were dainty; luxuries, and splendid have departed from you, and you will find them no more at all.

15 The merchants of these things, who were made rich by her, will stand afar off for the fear of her torment, weeping and wailing,

16 And saying: Alas! Alas, that great city, that was clothed in fine linen, and purple, and scarlet, and decked with gold, and precious stones, and pearls!

17 For in one hour such great riches came to nothing! And every sea captain, and all the company in ships, the sailors, and all who earn their living from the sea, stood afar off,

18 And cried when they saw the smoke of her burning, saying: What city is like this great city?

19 And they cast dust on their heads, and cried, weeping and wailing, saying: Alas! Alas, that great city, in which all who had ships in the sea were made rich through her wealth! For in one hour she is made desolate.

20 Rejoice over her, O heaven, and Holy Apostles and Prophets; for Yahweh’s Judgment has come to pass, which His Prophets foretold would come to pass because of the sorceries of Satan and her followers!

21 And a mighty malak took up a stone like a great millstone, and cast it into the sea, saying: In this way, with violence, will that great city Babylon be thrown down, and will be found no more at all!

22 And the voice of harpers, and musicians, and of pipers, and trumpeters, will be heard no more at all in you. And no craftsman of any craft will be found anymore in you. And the sound of a millstone will be heard no more at all in you;

23 And the light of a lamp will shine no more at all in you. And the voice of the bridegroom and of the bride will be heard no more at all in you—for your merchants were the great men of the earth; for by your sorceries all the nations were deceived.

24 And in her was found the blood of Prophets, and of Saints, and of all who were slain upon the earth.

In preparing for nuclear war against Yahshua, Yahweh and The House of Yahweh, they will get caught up in their own burning, of one hour. Verses 10, 17 and 19 all say one hour burning.

Is That Possible? One Hour!

Atomic Armageddon is just 30 minutes away – former US Navy advisor

Published time: 7 Dec, 2015 07:31 Edited time: 7 Dec, 2015 09:50

https://www.rt.com/shows/sophieco/324941-nuclear-co;c-war-us/

Dr. Theodore Postol, former advisor to the U.S. Chief of Naval Operations, a professor at MIT, nuclear technology expert.

… US and Russia once again are pumping up their nuclear arsenal, and the Doomsday Clock shows it’s just three minutes before midnight. Is nuclear destruction looming once again over humankind? …could Atomic Armageddon happen by accident?…

Sophie Shevardnadze: …Ted, President Obama came into the White House calling for “Global Zero” – now, there are plans to spend a trillion dollars on an overall of entire nuclear arsenal. Why is this happening?

Dr. Theodore Postol: I think this is a consequence of the domestic politics.

SS: Now, do you believe the U.S. is readying its nuclear forces for direct confrontation with Russia? Do you think nuclear war is possible now? At any scenario, do you see that?

Dr. TP: I do think that an accidental nuclear war between the U.S. and Russia is possible. …I do think we are in danger.

SS: What happens, hypothetically, if there is a nuclear war? Will a doctrine like a mutual destruction doctrine ever work again?

Dr. TP: …somebody makes a bad decision with incomplete information, which is almost certainly what happens in the real world – information is never complete – you could have a massive use of nuclear weapons, and that, of course, would end civilization as we know it…

SS: Now, Ted, tell me something. Explain to an amateur, to me, how does one launch a nuclear weapon? Is it as easy as pressing a button? How long does it take for a nuclear missile to reach its target?

Dr. TP: The ballistic missile could be fired, basically, within 50 or 60 seconds, more or less, after alert being given to the operators. The rocket will then ignite…then it would release warheads. The warheads would float in the near vacuum of space under the influence of gravity and momentum, and in about 20-28 minutes would arrive at their targets, re-enter the atmosphere and explode. So the world could be, basically, finished off in anywhere from half hour to an hour upon the arrival of these warheads. …most nuclear warheads would be delivered in a very short time, probably within half hour or an hour interval.

Could This Also Darken The Sun?

Mattithyah 24:29

Immediately, but after the Great Tribulation of those days will the sun be darkened, and the moon will not give her light, and the stars will fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken.

The following article and essay from Discover magazine deals directly with the consequences of nuclear war.

Dr. Thomas was one of the four American scientists who, at the invitation of Senators Edward Kennedy and Mark Hatfield, met in Washington in December for a three-hour open discussion with four Soviet counterparts. The subject of their discussion: the nuclear winter (DISCOVER).

Two scientific reports have recently been published, dealing with the probable effects of nuclear war upon the earth’s climate and the life of the planet. The first discovery is already widely known within the scientific community of climatologists, geophysicists, and biologists here and abroad, and has been confirmed in detail by scientists in the Soviet Union. Computer models demonstrate that a nuclear war involving the exchange of less than one third of the total American and Soviet arsenal will change the climate of the entire Northern Hemisphere, shifting it abruptly from its present seasonal state to a long, sunless, frozen night. This will be followed after some months by a settling of nuclear soot and dust, then by a new malignant kind of sunlight, with all of its ultraviolet band, capable of blinding most terrestrial animals, no longer shielded from the earth by the ozonosphere. In the same research, new calculations of the extent and intensity of radioactive fallout predict the exposure of large land areas to much more intense levels of radiation than expected. The report is referred to as TTAPS, an acronym derived from the investigators’ names: Turco, Toon, Ackerman, Pollack, and Sagan.

The second piece of work, by Paul Ehrlich and 19 other distinguished biologists, demonstrates that the predictions of TTAPS mean nothing less than the extinction of much of the earth’s biosphere, very possibly involving the Southern Hemisphere as well as the Northern.

Taken together, the two papers change everything in the world about the prospect of thermonuclear warfare. They have already received a careful and critical review by scientists representing the disciplines concerned, here and abroad, and there already appears to be an unprecedented degree of concurrence with the technical details as well as the conclusions drawn. In the view of some referees, the TTAPS report may even be understating the climatological damage implied by its data. The 20 biologists’ paper, summarized by Professor Ehrlich, represents the consensus arrived at by 40 biological scientists at a meeting in Woods Hole, Massachusetts, last spring.

It is a new world, demanding a new kind of diplomacy and a new logic.

Up to now, the international community of statesmen, diplomats, and military analysts has tended to regard the prospect of nuclear war as a problem only for the adversaries in possession of the weapons. Arms control and the endless negotiations aimed at the reduction of nuclear explosives have been viewed as the responsibility, even the prerogative, of those few nations in actual confrontation. Now all that is changed. There is no nation on earth free of the jeopardy of destruction if any two countries, or groups of countries, embark upon a nuclear exchange. If the Soviet Union and the United States, and their respective allies in the Warsaw Pact and NATO, begin to launch their missiles beyond a still undetermined and ambiguous minimum, neutral states like Sweden and Switzerland are in for the same long-term effects, the same slow death, as the actual participants. Australia and New Zealand, Brazil and South Africa, could have as much to worry about as West Germany if a full-scale exchange were to take place far to the north.

Up to now, we have all tended to regard any conflict with nuclear arms as an effort by paired adversaries to settle such issues as territorial dominance or ideological dispute. Now, with the new findings before us, it is clear that any territory gained will be, at the end, a barren wasteland, and any ideology will vanish in the death of civilization and the permanent loss of mankind’s memory of culture.

The risks of this kind of war have conventionally been calculated by the numbers of dead human beings on either side at the end of the battle, armies and noncombatants together. The terms “acceptable” and “unacceptable,” signifying so-and-so many million human casualties, have been used for making cool judgments about the need for new and more accurate weapon systems. From now on, things are different. Leave aside the already taken for granted estimate that in an all-out exchange of, say, 5,000 megatons, something like a billion people would be killed outright by blast, heat, and radiation. Set aside as well the likely fact that more than another billion would die later on, from the delayed effects of the climate and radioactive fallout.

To Be Protected–The Elect

Revelation 18:3-5

4 And I heard another voice from heaven, saying: Come out of her, My People, so that you do not partake in her sins, and so that you do not receive of her plagues,

5 For her sins have reached unto heaven, and Yahweh has remembered her iniquities!

It’s you who must come out of her.

Mattithyah 6:33

But seek you first the Kingdom of Yahweh and His Righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.

Deuteronomy 12:5

But you are to seek the Habitation of your Father; The House of Yahweh—the place which Yahweh your Father shall choose out of all your tribes to establish His Name—and there you must go.

Come to His House? Yes! Yahweh shows in Prophecy where He chooses to place His Name.

Micahyah 4:1-3

There repent and convert to Righteousness.

Acts 3:19

Repent therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out; that times of refreshing may come from the Presence of Yahweh.

The time is short. It’s urgent that you obey Yahweh now.

Revelation 22:12-17

12 And behold, I come quickly, and My Reward is with Me, to give every man according as his work will be.

13 I am the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End.

14 Blessed are those who keep His Laws, that they may have right to the Tree of Life, and may enter in through the gates into the City.

15 For outside are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and worshipers of Gods (elohim) and everyone who professes to love, yet practices breaking the Laws.

16 I, Yahshua, have sent My Messenger to testify to you these things in the congregations of The House of Yahweh. I am the Root and the Offspring of David, and the Bright and Morning Star.

17 And the Spirit and the brides, say: Come! And let him who hears, say: Come! And let him who is thirsty come. And whoever will, let him take the water of life freely.
